Everything that slows us down and forces patience, everything that sets us back into the slow circles of nature, is a help. Gardening is an instrument of grace.

I am changing how I post your much appreciated comments. Since I began the blog, I've waited to post them until I had the opportunity to respond. Sometimes that's taken a while, so I've decided to moderate them and post them as soon as possible, and then I'll respond when I get a chance.
Also, you may comment on any posts, no matter how old, and I will receive notice.

I just love this quote. I hope you don't mind if I use it on my own blog one day. Maybe once things start popping up in the garden! :)
ReplyDeleteOf course I don't mind! I just finished listening to excerpts from May Sarton's works, and I heard many words of wisdom. I like your new candle picture!
